All Chapters of My Husband's Secret: Chapter 11 - Chapter 20

Manhattan, USA, 19 years agoMikael snorted in annoyance when he saw Claire running in his mansion's garden because she chased dragonflies and butterflies. That 8-year-old girl has a rather silly hobby: catching butterflies and dragonflies to be kept as pets.“Get away from me, Claire!” Mikael pushed the little girl away from him."Come catch butterflies with me!" Take Claire while grabbing his hand—taking him to run around like two useless, stupid kids."I don't want to!" Mikael pushed Claire once more.In the past, when Claire first came to this house—right after Mikael broke her hand after falling from a horse, Claire was a little afraid of him. She would never force Mikael to do silly things to play with her. However, after nearly a year of knowing him, Claire finally became a fearless girl. She wasn't even afraid at all, even though Mikael threatened to carry her on Robert's back and asked that horse to drop her into the lake."Come on! Come play with me! Why have you only been pl

Venice, Italy, 4 AM"She passed out from the shock of what happened," Kennedy released Claire's wrist after applying ointment to her bruises."How about her eyes? Is she okay?” Mikael stared intently at Claire, trying to ensure that tonight's incident didn't affect Claire's sensitive corneas.“I'm not an ophthalmologist, but it doesn't seem like her eyes have any problems. Her eyes were bloodshot because she was still sensitive to light.” Kennedy—his personal doctor, explained calmly."Okay," Mikael crossed his arms and walked out of Claire's room with Kennedy.As soon as he left the room, he was immediately greeted by Nancy and Josephine, who looked worried.Mikael took a deep breath.Honestly, he was too lazy to talk to anyone when his emotions weren't stable. However, seeing how worried his mother was as he walked out of the car carrying Claire toward the plane, he had no choice but to explain Claire's current state."She is fine." Mikael spoke briefly.Kennedy was already sitting

Michael's Mansion Manhattan, New York, US. 10 AM "Where are we?" Claire desperately wanted to look around her, but the bandages on her eyes restricted her view. The sound of the elevator chiming was followed by respectful greetings from several men and women—which Michael ignored, making Claire frown in confusion. Even though she couldn't see, Claire could feel that they were in a strange place—a place she had never been to before. Michael touched her hand and led her walking, "this is my house." He said slowly, "even though it's not as big as my house in Venice, I'm sure this place will feel comfortable." “Wait…” Claire stopped her steps. A doubt filled her mind again, “since when did you… have a house? Is this Daddy and Mommy's house?” They were in separate cars after getting off the plane, so Claire assumed that Josephine and John had gone to their house while Michael drove her to her apartment. Michael was silent for a few moments, and Claire didn't know what he was doing,

Williams Mansion. Manhattan, New York, US.19 Years Ago…"Didn't I tell you not to swim in the lake?!" Lionel's screams were deafening. He glared fiercely, indicating he would not hesitate to punish Mikael and Claire even though their status was the child of the owner of the Williams Mansion—his boss.Claire hugged her towel tightly—she would have almost died if Lionel hadn't pulled her from the lake in time."Claire asked me to swim," Mikael shrugged casually, "what can I do if she forces me?" Mikael gave a mocking look—completely indifferent to Claire, who was still crying from fright.Well, doesn't that orphanage girl deserve to be drowned in the lake? She was the one who bothered him, so why was he the one to blame?"Mikael," Claire's lips were blue with cold, muttered under her breath as she stared at him.As usual, that little girl was always crying."Do you understand now why I told you not to listen to Mikael, Claire?" Lionel touched Claire's shoulder, looking at her intently

NYU Medical Center, New York, US. 3 PM"Her condition has improved. Now she can remove her bandages during the day, as long as she doesn't look directly at the light that is too bright."Claire smiled happily as she listened to Stacy's explanation to Michael.Michael comes home. He kept his promise this morning, came home at lunchtime, and drove her to the hospital. Well, even though he was a bit late—something Michael had never done before.However, she was glad that Michael drove her to the hospital so she didn't have to go alone with Nancy.And not only did she do an eye check-up, but Stacy also asked her to do a check-up. Blood, urine, even… ultrasound. She doesn't know the purpose, but Claire doesn't ask much because Michael said the check-up was necessary after her accident one month ago."That means she doesn't need to use bandages anymore?" Michael frowned and stared at her for a moment.“That's right, Mr. Williams. We've been experimenting for three days now, and Miss Claire
